Where the Toyota RAV4 transmission is listed
We found priced Toyota RAV4 transmission listings at 645 salvage yards across 47 states. California supplies the most, with 760 listings (18% of the total) from 70 yards. Location matters: yards in Nevada ask a median $1,365, while Illinois yards ask $2,505, 84% more for the same part. Shipping usually costs less than that gap for smaller parts, so it can pay to buy out of state.

Market analysis
How much does a used Toyota RAV4 transmission cost?
Asking prices for a used Toyota RAV4 transmission are unusually spread out: the top listing asks about 6 times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 74% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $2,457.
Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, (AT), A25AFXS engine (hybrid), w/o plug-in hybrid, lists at a $1,199 median, while (AT), A25AFKS engine, UB80E (FWD), type C (serial number 3rd digit A) commands $3,000, a 150% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.
Model year matters too: 2018 units carry the lowest median at $1,950, while 2023 tops the table at $2,500. Parts from 2013–2021 are interchangeable, so if the 2018 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 8 compatible years.
Against comparable vehicles, the Toyota RAV4 sits 236% above the Ram 1500 ($700), 8% below the Chevy Silverado 1500 ($2,563), and 14% above the Ford F150 ($2,060) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.
Buying a used transmission: what to check
- Ask for the donor mileage. Under 80K miles leaves significantly more service life.
- Confirm the torque converter is included with automatics; most yards include it, but verify.
- Match engine and drivetrain exactly. A CVT from a base trim won't fit a manual sport trim.
- Ask if the unit was test-driven or fluid-inspected before the donor was dismantled.
- Plan a fluid and filter change at install. Old fluid in a good unit causes avoidable failures.
